Even the Washington Post Admits the Case
Against Trump Is Probably BS
Posted By: Dreadnought, 3/31/2023 1:31:40 PM
When you’re a far-leftist district attorney prosecuting the man the left hates the most, and you have lost the Washington Post, you might want to rethink your position. This is the situation in which New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg finds himself as he continues functioning as the head of the progressive spear to be used to kill former President Donald Trump’s chances of occupying the White House once again. The Post’s editorial board published an op-ed titled “The Trump indictment is a poor test case for prosecuting a former president,” in which the authors cast doubt on the chances that Bragg will be able to carry out a successful prosecution

The Democratic Party is making war on Republicans, conservatives, and America. All rules have been abrogated, all traditions trashed, all sense of fairness gone. It is past time for conservatives to quit being nice guys. The Democrats’ assault can be stopped only by a healthy dose of their own medicine.
Let’s start investigating prominent Democrats with an eye toward bringing criminal charges against them. Most of America’s district attorneys, those that have a political affiliation, are no doubt Republicans. Likewise, most attorneys general are Republicans. They all should think about Democrats who can be charged in their jurisdictions.
On Friday’s broadcast of CNN International’s “Amanpour,” White House National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby stated that there aren’t any plans to expel Russian diplomats over Russia’s detention of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, the focus is on getting Gershkovich released, and “this is not a new tactic from Mr. Putin.”
Guest host Bianna Golodryga asked, “President Biden was asked, just today, if he plans to expel Russian journalists or diplomats. He said there are no plans right now. Why not?” Kirby responded, “We are taking a look at this case, obviously, very closely. Our focus, right now, Bianna, is getting Evan out of there,
BELVIDERE, Ill. -- A structure collapse was reported Friday evening during a concert at the Apollo Theatre in Belvidere, Illinois.
The collapse was reported as severe storms with 90 mph winds blew through.
The sold-out concert began at 7 p.m. Death metal bands Morbid Angel, Revocation, and Skeletal Remains were on the bill at the venue.
The collapse happened about 30 minutes into the concert. The first call came in as a mass-casualty collapse.
Video from the scene showed the marquee collapsed to the ground, as did a large portion of the large bowstring truss roof.
Nearly two dozen people were hospitalized after a tornado ripped through metro-Little Rock, Arkansas Friday and meteorologists warned dangerous twisters, heavy rain and large hail still threatened millions more in the Mississippi Valley.
Baptist Health Medical Centers in Arkansas said it received 21 patients in the aftermath of the tornado, including five who were in critical condition, hospital spokesperson Cara Wade told CNN in an email.
The Storm Prediction Center issued a Level 5 out of 5 "high risk" for severe weather -- the highest risk level there is when it comes to severe storms -- for two regions. One region stretches from parts of eastern Arkansas, southwestern Tennessee and
A judge denied granting summary judgment to Fox News in its attempt to get Dominion Voting Systems' $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit thrown out Friday, meaning the case will go to trial in mid-April.
Delaware Superior Court Judge Eric Davis handed Dominion a major win, too, when he agreed that the challenged statements are false. The ruling spares the voting machine company from having to litigate baseless conspiracy theories about its role in the 2020 election during the upcoming trial against Fox News and its parent company, Fox Corp.
“The evidence developed in this civil proceeding demonstrates that is CRYSTAL clear that none of the Statements relating to Dominion
Google founder Sergey Brin, former Disney executive Michael Ovitz, Hyatt Hotels executive chairman Thomas Pritzker and a fourth billionaire, real estate investor Mort Zuckerman, will be subpoenaed in a lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase by the government of the U.S. Virgin Islands related to sex trafficking by Jeffrey Epstein.
The subpoenas were first reported Friday by The Wall Street Journal. A source familiar with the matter confirmed them to CNBC. The subpoenas demand communications and documents related to the bank and Epstein, The Journal noted.
News of the subpoenas comes three days after it was reported that JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon will answer questions under oath in the lawsuit,
Healthy children and teens likely don’t need COVID-19 vaccinations, according to updated guidance posted on the website of the World Health Organization (WHO) on Tuesday.
WHO’s Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization (SAGE) met last week to create a revised roadmap for COVID vaccinations.
The new roadmap defines three priority groups — high, medium and low — based on the "risk of severe disease and death" when contracting the virus.
Healthy kids between 6 months and 17 years old are now deemed low priority. The agency said that for this group, "traditional essential vaccines" for illnesses like rotavirus, measles, polio and pneumococcal conjugate have a greater impact.

After being indicted by a Manhattan grand jury, former President Donald Trump is expected to be arraigned in court on Tuesday, a law enforcement source has told Fox News.
Judge Juan Merchan is the trial judge presiding over the case, which stems from District Attorney Alvin Bragg's investigation into alleged hush money payments Trump made to porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016. Trump is scheduled to be arraigned at 2:15 p.m. in Merchan's courtroom on the 15th floor at 100 Centre Street in New York City.
In addition to Trump's personal attorney Joe Tacopina, a second source has confirmed that Trump has made arrangements with the district attorney's legal team

Earlier today, I wrote about how the outgoing board of Disney’s Reedy Creek Improvement District (RCID), the quasi-governmental agency that ran Disney’s Florida properties until Gov. Ron DeSantis and the state legislature dissolved it, enacted a series of covenants and development agreements that purported to keep control of the district in the company’s hands. The new board for the renamed Central Florida Tourism District — which DeSantis handpicked and put in place — worried that the actions neutralized the board’s authority, but Disney forgot who it was messing with.
“We’re going to have to deal with it and correct it,” board member Brian Aungst Jr. told the Orlando Sentinel.

Donald Trump faces more than 30 counts related to business fraud in an indictment from a Manhattan grand jury, according to two sources familiar with the case – the first time in American history that a current or former president has faced criminal charges.
Trump is expected to appear in court on Tuesday.
The indictment has been filed under seal and will be announced in the coming days. The charges are not publicly known at this time.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office has been investigating the former president in connection with his alleged role in a hush money payment scheme and cover-up involving adult film star Stormy Daniels

ABC News is laying off dozens of employees, including some of its highest-ranking executives, as part of the Walt Disney Co.’s ongoing round of layoffs that will see 7,000 employees depart the company.
In all, ABC News is expected to lay off 50 individuals—including an executive producer close to Good Morning, America co-anchor and former Clinton administration official George Stephanopoulos—according to a Variety report. Other executives getting pink-slipped include the head of ABC News’ investigative unit, the network’s Los Angeles bureau chief, and the network’s chief spokesperson. “While these actions are never easy, they are a necessary step to ensure we’re on solid footing for the years ahead

President Joe Biden on Friday commemorated Transgender Day of Visibility, calling transgender people “made in the image of God and deserving of dignity, respect, and support.”
He tweeted:
On Transgender Day of Visibility, we want you to know that we see you just as you are: Made in the image of God and deserving of dignity, respect, and support.
We’ll never stop working to create a world where you won’t have to be brave just to be yourself.(Tweet) He also released a lengthy proclamation.
Transgender Day of Visibility celebrates the joy, strength, and absolute courage
Trans activists have been storming state capitols over the last few days. On March 29, it was Kentucky. On March 30, it was Tennessee. Now for the third day in a row, trans activists have stormed another state capitol.
This time, it’s Florida. But I’m fairly certain that none of these people will be charged with an effort to “obstruct an official proceeding,” after they screamed at the top of their lungs.
One of the organizers ranted, to whip up the crowd, “This fight does not end here. We keep showing up every single day. We keep making our voices heard.” Then
HARRISBURG, Pa. -- Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman has left Walter Reed National Military Medical Center after six weeks of inpatient treatment for clinical depression, with plans to return to the Senate when the chamber resumes session in mid-April, his office said Friday. In a statement, Fetterman's office said he is back home in Braddock, in western Pennsylvania, with his depression “in remission,” and gave details on his treatment — including that his depression was treated with medication and that he is wearing hearing aids for hearing loss. It was the latest medical episode for the Democrat, who won last fall's

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley has issued a warning to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg over his politically motivated case against President Donald Trump.
The legal scholar notes that New York judges, especially at the Appellate level, will not like the George Soros-funded prosecutor’s case against Trump.
“This indictment, if it is reportedly following the theory that we’ve been talking about, is political,” Turley said.
“It’s a raw political prosecution.
An agreement has been reached between prosecutors in Manhattan and Trump’s legal team over the terms of the former Presidents surrender. The news comes less than a day after the Manhattan Grand Jury announced their vote to indict the former president for his hush money case with Stormy Daniels.According to the report, Trump will not be handcuffed when he surrenders. The unusual event will mark the first instance of a former US commander-in-chief being arrested and brought to court.
On Thursday night New York City DA Alvin Bragg announced his office was indicting President Trump.
The indictment is currently under seal, however, according to a leak to CNN, President Trump was hit with 34 counts related to business fraud.
“Former President Donald Trump faces more than 30 counts related to business fraud in an indictment from a Manhattan grand jury, according to two sources familiar with the case.” CNN reported.President Trump is expected to be arraigned on Tuesday at 2:15 PM ET in New York City on the garbage charges.
Everything about Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is shallow fakery and manipulative astroturf.The term “astroturf” is given whenever a political operation attempts to generate the illusion of support where little to no support exists. Astroturf politics is pure fabrication and highlights the smallness of the candidate for whom the astroturf operation is conducted.
In republican national politics we saw astroturf operations around Carly Fiorina and Ted Cruz in 2016, so it doesn’t come as a surprise to see the same individual’s surface again as hired by Team DeSantis to create his 2024 astroturf campaign. Yesterday’s trip(snip)to Georgia was pure astroturf, complete with free DeSantis ’24 swag, t-shirts, and various
Former President Donald Trump will be facing at least one felony charge in his Manhattan case, the Associated Press reported moments ago.
While Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has yet to formally release a list of the charges against Trump, it is believed charges stemming from allegedly falsifying records will be raised from misdemeanors to felony levels.The charges come related to allegations the former president paid Michael Cohen $130,000 in “hush money” to send to Stormy Daniels,
It must be frustrating at times to be Gavin Newsom. It’s true that he’s rich, has the striking good looks of a decades-old Ken doll accidentally uncovered in a landfill, and is the Governor of California. But he is also the governor of a state that probably set a record for hemorrhaging the largest number of citizens in the shortest amount of time in the history of this nation, or for that matter any other, during peacetime. He is the governor of cities that are losing businesses and gaining homeless camps. Poverty, lawlessness, and decay have become the hallmarks of cities

Liberals might be scratching their heads over why potential Donald Trump rivals are rushing to denounce his indictment. The reason is simple. Conservative Republicans know that if this assault is allowed to stand, they will be next.
The left, as well as the rabble of never-Trump Republicans, like to tell everybody that the unprecedented measures taken against Trump – culminating with this week’s indictment – are justified because he poses a unique threat to our precious democracy.
Just to review, we’re talking about measures like Democrats impeaching him twice on the flimsiest of grounds. Like federal law enforcement
The reaction to the unprecedented indictment of President Trump was predictable. (snip) Pelosi wrote:
“No one is above the law, and everyone has the right to a trial to prove innocence.”
This is nothing short of a shocking statement, especially from a lawmaker with many decades of experience. The presumption of innocence is the standard in any civilized democracy (snip) It is unlikely that Pelosi isn’t aware of the legal standards in the U.S. Perhaps her feeling of schadenfreude got the better of her, or maybe this is a warning for others who support the MAGA agenda.
More than $4 million has been donated to Trump's presidential campaign in the 24 hours since he was indicted, his team has claimed.
A quarter of the money came from new donors and contributions could be traced to all 50 states, according to a fundraising email sent out by Trump on Friday night.
It comes after his son-in-law Jared Kushner insisted the indictment would 'only make him stronger.'Trump's team alleges that at least one contribution had come from every single state in America within five hours of a Manhattan jury voting to indict him
